GBWe Had The Best Charter We had the best charter. Everyone loved the Symphony. Cabins were spacious, nice closets, showers and comfortable bedding. Common areas were beautiful, comfortable and we used them all. Having two hot tubs was superb, and the crew had them ready when asked. The entire staff on the Symphony was top notch. They all wanted us to have a great time. They connected with the group and were knowledgeable and willing to share. Evan was amazing and our entire group loved him. He shared his pride of Croatia, his history knowledge and his recommendations of local spots to try. We really enjoyed interacting with Ivan. He is not only a great director, but a fantastic person. Communication about our daily activities and what to expect were great. The chefs were superb. All of our food on the boat was so delicious and service was elegant. The staff was efficient in serving our clients who had special dietary needs also. The restaurants that were included off the boat were very, very special. Our whole group enjoyed this time to eat locally at the beautiful locations that were arranged. Everyone enjoyed the included tours at each island. The tour guides were super knowledgeable and excited to share with us. I don't think anyone would change a thing. I think we had three swim stops, and those were some of the most fun times we had as a group. It allowed us to relax and unwind and just have a great time. Chartering a yacht is such a unique experience and spending time enjoying the actual yacht and water play was an all-time favorite.

GBExcellent experience... I have used Via Tours Croatia twice now this summer. Each experience has been seamless for the clients and they provide strong value for their services. Their team is responsive, polished, and organized. The planning correspondences were very easy, and processing payments is electronic and effortless. On the ground, their local contacts are thorough. I will continue using Via Tours and I would recommend other advisors work with them. AND...they only work with travel agents so there is never any conflict of interest.

GBAll in all a great trip All in all a great trip. The boat part was the best of many great experiences. Really nice accommodations and food. The crew were friendly and efficient, and did their best to ensure our comfort and enjoyment to the fullest. We loved all the stops along the way. The land portion of the trip was enjoyable and interesting, and the accommodations were first class.There are two things I would have changed. First, we would not have gone on the Montenegro tour. The ride from Dubrovnik and return was too long for the reward. I think a free day would have been better for us. Which leads me to a second point. While all the excursions were enjoyable, we would have liked more free time to explore on our own. Kathy, our leader could not have been any better. She was always attentive to our needs and answering our many questions along the way regarding what we had done and what was coming up. Thank you, Kathy

GBGo to for Croatia Vacations! Working with Via Tours Croatia is always a great experience for both me and my clients. I always know my clients are going to have an amazing tailored vacation and will be well taken care of. When travel issues (due to airlines) have come up, Via is always on top of it and still make it a seamless trip for their travelers. I look forward to many more trips together.

GBThe guides were wonderful in every way The guides were wonderful in every way. The hotels provided were well located and exceeded the expectation. The use of time was just right.... enough to thoroughly enjoy each area and extra time to explore further if needed. The meals provided were terrific. Transportation vehicles were up to date and drivers were helpful, including the various boats. The drivers were very knowledgeable and able to save time and crowds by knowing all the local tricks. I would love to make another visit.
